Please limit the changes in this patch to renaming the functions and/or

Thanks for the feedback Mimi.

I'll split this into 2 patches:

PATCH 1: Rename files + rename CONFIG
PATCH 2: Update IMA hook to utilize early boot data measurement.

I'm referring to introducing the "measure_payload_hash" flag.  I assume
this is to indicate whether the buffer should be hashed or not.

Example 1: ima_alloc_key_entry() and ima_alloc_data_entry(0 comparison
-static struct ima_key_entry *ima_alloc_key_entry(struct key *keyring,
-                                                const void *payload,
-                                                size_t payload_len)
-{


+static struct ima_data_entry *ima_alloc_data_entry(const char *event_name,
+                                                  const void *payload,
+                                                  size_t payload_len,
+                                                  const char *event_data,
+                                                  enum ima_hooks func,
+                                                  bool measure_payload_hash)  <====
+{

         if (queued)
                 return;

But in general, as much as possible function and file name changes
should be done independently of other changes.

thanks,

I agree - but in this case, Tushar's patch series on adding support for "Critical Data" measurement has already introduced "measure_payload_hash" flag. His patch updates "process_buffer_measurement()" to take this new flag and measure hash of the given data.

My patches extend that to queuing the early boot requests and processing them after a custom IMA policy is loaded.

If you still think "measure_payload_hash" flag should be introduced in the queuing change as a separate patch I'll split the patches further. Please let me know.

thanks,
